I've played both an Xbox 360 and a PS3 on my Dell Ultrasharp Monitor, I also have speakers connected to my PC. What I do when I want to play a console is I use a 2nd AUX cable running from my Monitor to the speakers, any HDMI audio that would reach the monitor (it doesn't have speakers itself) is routed to my external speakers. This must mean Audio is reaching the monitor via HDMI and would play over the speakers on them.

It looks like that monitor has a headphone jack. So you would just plug the hdmi cable into the monitor like normal, then plug your headphones/speakers into the jack and go. That's what i do with my monitor and my consoles(360 and wii) and it does the job fine.

If you run this setup, sharing your monitor with your PC and Consoles, you can either get 2 AUX cables for simultaneous use, (Make sure you get speakers with at least 2 AUX inputs). Or have 1 cable, when you want to play on a console, you unplug it from your PC and plug that end into the AUX port on the Monitor.

i think this is going to be the way to do italso just for the heads up this monitor does have built in speakers.. but yeah... not going to use monitor speakers
